I need a poem written during 1954-1959 by a Vietnamese person about the Vietnam war.

I've looked everywhere in all kinds of official archives and shit and I can't find a single damn thing from this time period online

Sorry, pal. You're fucked.

Yeah, you can join some bullshit coding bootcamp, but otherwise you're getting literally nothing from your education that would help you in any job.

Hi, any book that might help in dealing with failures and suicidal ideas ?
I'll share my non-related reccs as a reward, post some random reccs if you want:
-The Lucifer Principle, Bloom
-Whatever, Houellebecq
-Journey to the End of the Night, Céline
-The Consolations of the Forest, Tesson
-Maman pas l'hôpital !, Jeanne-Marie Préfaut (rare, might be hard to find, especially in english)

What do you think then? Do you think there's any possibility of English being completely eradicated?

Daily reminder that you cannot truly live the literary lifestyle unless you get in touch with your feminine side by crossdressing and doing butt stuff

Hi /lit/. I am fucked and here is why

It is apparent that I must form myself into a man of pure contigency! My actions will be informed by an increasingly ridiculous- and hopefully hilarious- series of maladaptive interpretations of my own reality. Eventually I will get myself killed Cool Hand Luke style. As I am dying, I will understand that the free will I experienced was either: in the tabulation of rules, which even as they were of my own making (even if by way of several layers of textual contextualization) were final and unable to be subverted at any given moment except by way of a convincing ammendment; or else (and at once) by arbitrary choices made instant by instant . My authenticity could be understood from the mere fact that my own condition of excessive autonomy resulted in my own death. Of course the aphorism that ought to be observed here is the one that "actions speak louder than words". True, but right now I can see a view an architectural model of a library to be constructed at a later date within my city. I can see the skeleton of a house being built right accross from where I live. These are just the suggestions of the functional structures they intimate. In a similar fashion, a condominium project down the street has been put on hold indefinitely, apparently due to economic conditions in the city. There is no real distinction to be made between a velleity and a blueprint.

I don't see a possible way out of this

>every "I wrote a book" thread could be 100 post guy

>Dad rings me
>"Hey son I'm getting you a gift and I know you like reading so I'm getting you a book"
>"Cool"
>"The bookstore clerk here is recommending me this book "The Fault in our Stars" by some green guy, you dig it?"
>Shit, gotta think of something, and fast
>"Uh not really, get me something from a latin american author, surprise me"
>"Uh sure thing son"
>He ended up getting me Gabo's "In Evil Hour"

Have you ever dodged a bullet this hard, /lit/?

Has anyone else noticed that a robot is now evaluating our humanity? Is there a passage that encapsulates this feel? Also FUCKING STREET SIGNS
